Method

Preparation of Beef

1

Cook the Alcatra

Season the alcatra with salt and pepper. Grill or pan-sear the beef over medium-high heat for about 6-8 minutes on each side or until it reaches your desired doneness. Let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing.

Cooking the Rice

2

Prepare the Rice

In a saucepan, bring 2 cups of water to a boil. Add 1 cup of Brazilian white rice, reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15-20 minutes until the rice is tender and water is absorbed.

Cooking the Beans

3

Prepare the Pinto Beans

If using canned pinto beans, simply heat them in a pot over medium heat. If using dried beans, soak them overnight and cook them in water until tender.

Frying the Plantains

4

Fry Sweet Plantains

Peel and slice the sweet plantains diagonally. In a skillet, heat oil over medium heat and fry the plantain slices until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes per side.

Preparing Baguette

5

Serve with Baguette

Slice the baguette and spread butter on each slice. Serve it warm.

Assembling the Dish

6

Plate the Arrumadinho

On a plate, arrange the sliced alcatra, serve the rice, pinto beans, fried sweet plantains, and warm baguette slices. Add a serving of the salad of your choice on the side.
